i just found out
that a close
dharma sister passed
last night
she lived with me
in my remote holy
retreat town
a lovely healer
only in her 50’s
oh dear
clear water
blue eyes
sun-kissed smile
my heart so full
breaks every day
here in the
poignant kaliyuga
what brevity
our time here
let mine never
be squandered
may i create
a life that is
real
and had
meaning
and let
no obstacle
sway me
from revealing
fulfilling
my heart’s
deepest truths
oh new year
iron ox bold muscle
protect and carry
me into
the bliss
of light’s unhindered
rays of creation
for my vajra sister christine dupre, crestone colorado, who’s all too short life ended on the evening of Feb 10, 2021

Beautiful words. I also love Christine and am deeply saddened by her loss. May she now be free to receive the magnificent love that she emanated on this earthly plane.
Thank you for these beautiful words. Very saddened by Christine’s sudden death. Remembering her beautiful spirit and honest heart. Our last encounter was her sending supportive vitamins. Blessings to her family and loved ones.
Dear Christine, you will be deeply missed.
